That is the case for almost every team under the FA era. The team is in a much better shape, no question about that, so I disagree that we are back to square one. By default there is the draft to address a few needs, especially depths.
Ever since we lost Aldon Smith we had a need at edge rushers. We can finally say we don't need help at the edge other than depth (Ronald Blair will be an UFA).
We might finally have no need for at the CB positions (Sherman, Witherspoon, K Williams). We can add depth and strengthen the position, but essentially it is not a big need.
Depends on the progression of T Moore, we might also have no need for the safety position other than depth.
We also have no need at the LB, QB, FB, TE, K, P positions.
We are hoping our young receivers (Pettis and Samuels especially) can step up to a point in which we don't need to address our receiver position.
We are in a good shape.
